Been a while but i need to vent. Coming up with story ideas is really good except when the imposter syndrome hits and you start to wonder how you ever thought you could write something like that because obviously you can’t because obviously you aren’t a real writer and not even a good one. So what if you have a really good idea that’s complex with themes and intertextuality and has layers and insight - there’s no way you can write it because you suck at writing. So you put it off until you have the skill except you never gain the skill because you’ll always be bad and never good enough to write anything noteworthy. That’s how I’m feeling right now; pretty hard done by and sorry for myself.

#i need to remember that editing exists #and perfect isn’t always achievable #im literally a diagnosed perfectionist so its clear where im going wrong #but that doesn’t make it any better #i hate putting ideas on the shelf #but i get so worried i wont be able execute them how i want #that is my problem :/#im working on it #writeblr #creative writing student #short story writing #writing advice #writing rant

“Would you simply play with me in our little potbound Eden?” | pamela isley — batman #400

[ID: four photos of Pamela Isley. She's in front of a solid pale purple background in all photos. In the first photo, she's bent at the waist and smiling as she peers down at a large green, potted bromeliad. In the second photo, she has her eyes closed and is blowing into a thin dart-gun that's held between her fingers. In the third photo, she's in the rightmost side of the panel and is looking over her shoulder with a tantalizing smirk. In the fourth photo, she's grinning menacingly down at a yellow flower that she cradles in her hand. END ID]

#hiiii pam.... <333 #need these redrawn but where shes plus size.... esp the 3rd photo..... please and thank you #reading comics is great until you are forced to remember how they draw the same thin pale design for every single woman in existence #same face syndrome too but that goes for the men as well (and their black hair and blue eyes)#anyways.... hiiii pam.... <33 #also u can always tell when im procrastinating smthn (transcribing or real life shit) by me doing really basic edits of panels suddenlt #today's case. writers block and my brain has mold on it and is being rly mean.. also a transcribe of that comic i mentioned yesterday....#c: batman | i: 400 #crypt's panels #posts from the crypt #pamela isley #poison ivy

every day when i wake up i say to myself “dykeyuu you are not purchasing any sanrio merchandise today” but then i find the deal of the century……..

#like. i only buy it if i know for sure ill NEVER find it at that price again #2007 corduroy keroppi that literally doesn’t exist on the internet? $16 #i came across it by chance and it took me hours to find evidence that anyone else had ever owned one #found a chococat one too from the same series but it’s pricier…#but it’s the only one listed anywhere that i can find so. perhaps #sike i found one in the philippines there’s TWO corduroy chococats on the internet #i mean there’s literally one reddit thread i could find from years ago confirming that this series existed #and it’s only got like two commenters who only vaguely remembered the series #and a handful of worthpoint entries confirming that a couple of each of them had sold on ebay at some point #all the other sanrio corduroy plushies i could find were from other series #there’s a hello kitty and my melody from the same year but it wasn’t the same series #both series were rereleases in 2007 and the original release year for hk/mm was earlier than cc/k #20in 2012 fiesta keroppi? $40 when he usually goes for $100+#(this includes shipping…)#was devastated to find an etsy listing for the 2010 limited keroppi build a bear for $85 that had already sold…#the next cheapest one of those is like $140 #and dont get me fucking started on chococat #no build a bear should EVER go for $500 #like be serious. maybe it was limited edition 14 years ago but it’s still a damn stuffed animal #manifesting they rerelease the original sanrio build a bears to beat the price gougers into submission #the intersection of two special interests: sanrio and buying things from people who don’t know what they have #throwback to the 1993 keroppi squeaky toy that i thrifted for 25 cents #just looked it up to see and i found the exact same one but only on worthpoint #he used to be a keychain… mine is just the little guy with no chain #comparable one from the same year same size/material etc just different design goes for $20+#context i refuse to make a worthpoint account and pay them just to see what things sold for on ebay they can kiss my ass #me when i need to infodump but gf is at work and has already heard like half of this

not my best work because it's half-scribbled but! Queen Roona on her horsey (a Guarlara)

#i don't think i picked the same tone as usual for her hands i think i picked the wrong one of the two #i can't remember which I used... i thought it was this one? maybe the blue just makes it seem off. I need to work on colour theory #anyway. if anyone has suggestions on what to do about the white face paint for non-white queens please let me know. i know we saw some #on screen but. im not sure if that was. yknow. an okay way to go about it. considering star wars loves its racism.#so if anyone has suggestions im more than welcome to take them!#yeah otherwise here's a sketch that i started a few days ago #and then picked back up when i remembered it existed and only did the bare minimum hehe #queen roona #star wars oc #star wars #my oc #my art #mimse art #mimse ocs #EDIT OH MY GOD I FORGOT HER LOVELY LITTLE MOLE ON HER CHEEK #:'( her pretty mole...

fluctuat nec mergitur: it is tossed by the waves but it does not sink a stargate: atlantis au of s4e6, "tabula rasa"

Ronon returned with the enchuri, and Teyla ensured the ventilation system was ready for it. What they hoped was the end of it turns out to be the beginning when the Tau’ri regain their health but not their memories. Suddenly the most experienced Lanteans are the only two with no loyalty to Earth, and the clock is ticking until the SGC figures that out…

finally drew that adopt I bought a few thousand years ago

#raveartts #rave.characters #original character #dragoncore #< yes this character is part dragon :3 #I can't believe I haven't drawn this character despite how long I've had them #they're so so cool #dragon kitty uwu #I was also fucking around with the vector line tools in sai #bc I always forget they exist #but they're actually pretty helpful #(assuming you want smooth lines without textures of course)#I wouldn't use it for regular art #but I should remember to use it for commissions when I want really precise lines and weights #bc it's so much easier to edit a line in this mode #hmnn.... anyways I need to name this character #actually I need to name so so so many of my characters it's actually getting ridiculous #maybe I should do that thing where I give everyone ridiculous placeholders #and then get attached to those names and then I end up with a character named vacuum 😍

#starbuns edit #transformers #humanformers #prowl #tfa prowl is the only prowl to exist all those others arent real sorry but its true #im a little rusty on edits forgive my blending issues i'm old #i know i keep doing humanformers i swear i have actually robot drawings i just needed to fix some wrongs in this fandom #tbh this is a team effort with my older sib because they after so many years are still mad they made the only good prowl to exist-#a white man in human error they don't even remember the plot of the ep just the anger of a child going 'no he isn't white he is not white!'

the lengths I go for a momentary bit

#rambles #to this day f*nimation's localization choice haunts me but also it's hilarious #give sasara a bostonian dialect like the sailor moon dic dub did for its kansaiben chara #idc that there is no s2 announcement or that funi doesn't even really exist anymore #edit so 1. it was an nyc accent 2. this character doesn't speak in kansaiben or any non-main dialect originally #the one time I'm like 'I don't need to obsessively research Everything I think I remember'...

ok currently inspecting July Events to figure out wtf happened to Vash's coat

so we see him at the start of July in this:

which upon inspection IS different from his coat at the start of the series:

which makes this shot immediately post-july make some sense:

he's got the same belts pants, so clearly not ALL of his outfit got blown off, but it seems like his prior coat didn't survive the explosion. so at some point, he'd have to contact the floating ship again to get another coat made (these ppl really are working overtime keeping up with his coat and prosthetic demolishing lmaooo) WHICH on the topic of his prosthetic, it seems like it DID survive the July explosion, which is interesting!

smth im wondering about. In dialog, we hear from Brad that he met Vash when he was 4 years old, but hasn't seen him in the 13 years since (this being after the 2 years post-jeneora). at that time, it's 8 years post-july (since july happens 6 years before the start of the series, and then add the 2 years time skip post-jeneora), which sets the events of July THEORETICALLY to happen 5 years after his last visit to the flying ship.

so, how did he get his new coat if he hasn't been back to the flying ship in 13 years? Well, i assume he has some way to contact them from afar, considering he manages to get Sensei to bring him a new coat post-jeneora in some random town (& Sensei now brings Brad, who is 17, but would've only been 9 the last time).

this brings the question: how does he contact them? some kind of communication device? i remember his earring's a radio, but i dont remember him having any specific way to contact them directly. so maybe it's just not shown? i cant imagine he'd be able to send letters, all things considered, so it's probably some kind of radio transmission. the technology Does exist, & they almost definitely would pin a special radio on this disaster-prone asshole so he could still keep contact during the long years he's away from home.

the more you know 🤔

#speculation nation #fanny reads trigun #making a new tag for posts like these #fanny's trigun analysis #bc the wiki is frankly lacking in definite details like this #for the sake of my own writing i gotta do the analysis myself #which includes piecing together the timeline & vash's habits in the time between events.#i have very specific information i need for my fic. right NOW july and the flying ship being the most relevant.#im also wondering what vash thought of knives' condition. if he knew what state he was in #he never doubted that knives was still alive. so did he see him? or was he just drawing the natural conclusion given his own resilience?#we do see in chapter 88 of trimax that legato at knives' side can see vash across the way. not Close but still visible.#as vash perches on that damned bolder for who knows how long. processing? grieving? who knows what's happening there.#considering how loud legato screams and how acute vash's hearing is i bet he was aware of his existence.#assuming he's in the mind state to be aware of his surroundings that is. always possible he was too stuck in his brain and all.#these r all details im trying to pick apart for chapter 2 of my new fic. i know the direction vash is gonna go #but that initial moment. his initial Processing. im trying to sort out the details of that scene. he is not going to have a fun time lmfao #trigun spoilers/#edit for additional detail i realized: vash just plain didnt remember july. at all.#so the reason he wasnt worried about knives was bc he didnt know he got caught up in this to start with lmaooo #whoopsie daisey sometimes u read thru smth wayy too quickly and u forget essential details. whoops

#lmao nothing makes me feel more dyslexia than doing field work #i cannot do math in my head #i cannot process instruction. i cannot communicate literally anything. my communication skills r held together with string lol #my language skills lol. im constantly stumbling over words and forgetting words i need #whats the word...? how do u say it...? must be some of my most used phrases. my brain just works on a delay lol #me trying to learn german: well i can vaguely remember the shape of this word but not the actual spelling and also i cant remember how to #pronounce it. its so funny. my brain cannot read sounds into existence. i read aloud in English like an elementary schooler #also if u say the word out loud to me i will instantly forget it. lmao the effort it takes to get info into my brain #i sent off my personal statement for edits btw. which is terrifying bc its like my heart is bleeding thru my ribs and i pressed a page to #my chest. that is my personal statement. overindulgent and rambling. so the cuts will probably be brutal but thats fine #im not so sensitive abt the editing so much as im sensitive abt how i structured it. like did i do it wrong? should it have been clinical?#that seems so boring to me. idk we'll see what he thinks. i still think theres no way i get the scholarship but whatever. he's putting the #effort into working with me so i must show some potential. but also i cant find anything on how to format the statment from the department #and im annoyed at the uk grading system bc technically i have a 2:1 in my undergrad but literally if i round up by 0.01 on the us system id #have a 1st. and like not to diss the uk uni system but the way they grade is bullshit and also the us system is like brutal so i feel like #my grade should count for more lmao. im just bitter and worried i wont get in. bc the project would b so so so perfect #ugh. whatever. one step at a time. now onto the next thing. do i write or draw...?#unrelated
